BACKGROUND

Micro element technologies involve integrating micro-size element arrays in high density over the substrate.

SUMMARY

The inventors of the present disclosure have recognized that, during fabrication of the micro element, first, a micro element is formed over the donor substrate, and then the micro element is transferred to the acceptor substrate. For example, the acceptor substrate is a display screen. One difficulty during micro element fabrication is: how to transfer the micro element from the donor substrate to the acceptor substrate.

In a conventional micro element transfer, the micro element is transferred to the acceptor substrate through a transfer substrate via wafer bonding.

The micro element array is generally extracted by electrostatic method. During electrostatic extraction, a transfer head array is required. The transfer head array is of complex structure, and the reliability is a factor to consider. The fabrication of transfer head array brings additional cost.
